Bold and confident in everything they do, Aries are no different when it comes to flirting. They have no problem picking out the hottest person in the bar and buying them a drink.
If looking for a long-term relationship, the fire and air signs are your best bet, Aries. The more sensitive signs are likely to find your style too abrasive.
Confident and charismatic, Leos are master flirters. From focused eye contact to a devastating smile, Leos normally have a lot of tricks up their sleeve.
Be careful, Leo, not to make it all about you. We know you like an ego boost as much as the next person, but in a flirting context it's best to focus on giving the attention.
The most adventurous of the star signs, the Sag flirting style is best described as fun. Always prepared with a side-splitting anecdote, Sags have an infectious sense of humor.
Be careful, Sagittarius, not to come off as emotionally detached. Always ready to pick up for the next adventure, you can sometimes leave people feeling confused and a little hurt.
Famous for having a way with words, it comes as little surprise that Geminis rely heavily on their wit when it comes to charming a potential partner.
You might find that you run very hot and cold, Gemini, but at the end of the day that's okay, because in all honesty you quite enjoy being a tease.
Their star sign ruled by Venus, Libras tend to be natural-born flirts. They are more than adept at using their charm, charisma, and beauty to win people over.
Libras do need to be a little careful, since they have a tendency to flirt with just about everyone. They wouldn't want anyone feeling left out, after all.
Aquarians tend to be great proponents of flirting, since it allows them a great opportunity to show off how charismatic and fun they can be.
And they don't need to be one-on-one to flirt either: the Aquarian's flirting game is so strong that they can keep whole groups of people entertained with their passion and wit.
The water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) are all about making those deep connections, and that starts as early as the very first flirting session.
A Cancer's flirting style is usually very captivating and nurturing at the same time. It's all about deep conversations and showing they really care.
You might not always be trying to flirt, Cancer, but you'll find you often become irresistible to others as you connect with them on a deeply emotional level.
If there were only one word to describe the flirting style of a Scorpio, it would be "suggestive." There is so much about it that is cheeky and fun.
Scorpios invariably love flirting. In fact, they enjoy it so much that there doesn't even need to be an endgame. Getting their flirt on is fun enough in itself!
People born in Pisces are often shy, and when it comes to flirting, it's no exception. Often they will adopt a different persona to help muster the confidence.
The good thing is other signs are often intrigued by Pisces, even if they say nothing at all. There is something mysterious and enticing about this often misunderstood sign.
With the bull as their symbol, it might come as a surprise that Taurus are very sweet when it comes to flirting. They love the whole rom-com thing.
Tauruses are often quite old-fashioned too, which means they often prefer the other person to make the first move.
For better or worse, Virgos are the masters of mixed messaging. They can be completely standoffish one minute, and all over someone the next.
Virgos are often hesitant to let others in, but if they do make the decision to do so, they'll use their intelligence and wit to win that person over.
Caps are often a little reserved, but that doesn't stop others from wanting to scratch beneath the surface and really get to know them.
When it comes to flirting, Caps tend to have a sincere and straightforward style. They won't flirt with anyone they don't find genuinely interesting.
